Interesting fact
The Duplone coin from the Canton of Bern, made of gold (.900) and weighing 7.6400g, is a rare and valuable coin. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of economic and political turmoil in Switzerland, and its production was halted after only a few years due to the changing political landscape. As a result, the coin is now highly sought after by collectors and is considered a prized addition to any collection.
